With all of the fires going on in Southern California, there’s been a huge drain of resources from Northern California, so Ferndale and other local communities are providing coverage and support for tasks that CDF would normally be responsible for. …
Main Street merchants are encouraged to have scarecrows in front of their businesses during October, so here is our entry. I planned to have a mobile of helicopters above his head but I haven’t gotten around to making it. It’s …
Well it’s not quite the Rolling Stone, but I did get my first magazine cover which got me pretty excited. Through a weird set of circumstances, the publisher of Country Discoveries came across this picture of Ferndale’s tractor parade on …
It has been so gorgeous in the mornings all week so I’ve been taking some panorama shots of town from Ferndale Cemetery. It’s not as nice of a view as it is in spring when the rhodies are in bloom, …
I finally got around to photographing some of the men’s vintage clothing that we have in our collection. This is, I believe, an English military outfit, from the late 1800s. I’m not really sure, for all I know about military …
Over time, our three indoor cats have laid claim to their own level on their kitty house. Ricky likes the top, where he can hang his paws off and swipe at you if you walk by without petting him. Galen …

Galen, once again playing with a mouse. He’s not only good at catching them himself, he’s also good at stealing them from the other cats when they get bored. See all of our cats (with the possible exception of Trevor) …
After surveying some of the problems from the flood, we’ve decided to take down our porch and rebuild it back to the way it was originally. But right now with its peeling paint, missing balusters, and abundance of weeds, all …
I had to go down to Fort Bragg again today, this time to meet with the tourism folks. Business meetings aren’t that bad when they involve a two hour drive on some of the twistiest roads around. Probably should’ve taken …
I have no idea when this bus was manufactured, but it probably left the factory looking forward to transporting thousands of kids to school and back home. Throw in a few field trips for variety, and then maybe a happy …
While we had the box of bias gowns out from the previous shoot, I thought it would be a good idea to get all of them photographed in the studio so I would have pictures for Lori’s web site. If …
